Help Concert Recording Quality

So far, I've found one concert recorded by a Samsung Galaxy S3, and quite frankly, I'm pretty disappointed in the audio quality.

Compare that to the iPhone 4s - at a NERO show nevertheless, with even more bass (which is the key reason why some phones fail at recording audio, they can't handle the bass and the sound gets very distorted.)

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not bashing the phone, I REALLY want to buy one when it's released in the States, but the key selling point in my next phone is how well the phone can record audio at concerts. Maybe that video was a fluke? Does anybody care to chime in?
 
Based on the fact that my Captivate(AT&T Galaxy S1) and the Galaxy S2 both have the same issue I'm not surprised (but still disappointed) that Samsung hasn't addressed this.

I want an S3, but will stick with my S1 since supercurio's Voodoo Sound app fixes the issue. Funny how it took someone outside of Samsung to fix it! Unfortunately he can't do the same for the S2 (something to do it being different hardware than the S1)

I may end up buying a Iphone 5 just for this reason.
 
Here are a few of my links on youtube. Received my phone on June 6 and went to a concert to try out the video recording. The outcome of the audio quality is more on the treble side which is good if you like to be in the front row of a concert (like i always do). My Sony camera usually records with a distorted audio because it can;t seem to take the bass. Overall I'd say its Great.
